Thanks for your kind words.
They are just the way they came to me. I haven't tried wax or other coatings. Maybe I should try it.

I agree. Sambar Stag has a look that just sets it apart. Yea, Elk, Buffalo and other horns look nice, but there's nothing like genuine Sambar IMO.
Tough to get the real deal anymore - since the importation has been either stopped or severely limited.

J-frame and K-frame Sambar.....
I have just one set of stags. These came as an original factory option on this old model Ruger Blackhawk .44 magnum from 1957. They also offered a real ivory option, but I never found a Ruger that was so equipped.

I love Sambars, the more knarly the better.
This was one of the very few times my efforts to give elk a "sambar" look turned out well. The Ruger Mark 2 and the grips are in my "keepers" 
.
I currently have NO sambar on my guns. It's not that I don't LOVE sambar. My elk get too jealous. It's like inviting Sofia Vergara to have dinner with you and your wife. Your wife may be cute, but she sure is NOT going to feel happy sitting next to Sofia
OOPS ! ... I apologize for the "thread drift" ... All the gorgeous sambar here was making my head spin .......

Unfortunately, my Sambar Stag fever started too late in life to be able to get and afford the really nice ones for gun grips. But, this caused me to branch out into knives. Check some of these out. The first picture is various Case knives. The second picture is a matched serial numbered set from around 1980 with scrolled bolsters. I also have a decent number of Great Eastern Cutlery knives with Sambar Stag handles, but unfortunately, they aren’t in a group picture. Great Eastern still gets some fantastic Sambar Stag, but it is very difficult to get their knives these days.
